09 Sep Ohio University: from the office of the president

The lecture, “Trial by Jury: A Case of Deportation,” will be presented by OHIO alumnus Kyle Bowser and will be unlike any other event you will attend this fall. During the evening, Kyle will show a 30-minute film that he produced that depicts a trial and jury deliberation. After the film ends, we will have an hour-long town hall discussion. In addition, 12 members of the audience will be selected to serve on a jury, and they will be sequestered during a portion of the discussion.

I am grateful to Kyle Bowser for his willingness to return to campus to lead this dynamic and thought-provoking event. You can read more about the Challenging Dialogues lecture in this Compass article.

These are just a few examples of the ways in which we are moving our institution forward and embracing our mission of excellence in teaching, scholarship and service.

Thanks for your continued passion and support for Ohio University.

Kind regards,

M. Duane Nellis, Ph.D.
President
